Great video! It would have been nice to throw the V6F into the mix for completeness (see the pic from another thread below, which is a member's watch that he has in hand), but great video!

All of the dials are wrong it seems - they all have that shiny green line that the Gen just doesn't have (or doesn't have to the same extent at least), but personally that doesn't bother me. As to the rest of watch, they're all very similar. I think I'd be happy with any of the watches. I doubt I could tell them apart if they weren't labelled which means the price might become a relevant determiner in choice. What a great time to be rep fiend!

Great video. ZZF / CF dial is the closest. Though all of them are too yellowish.

Whats up RepTime! This is my 3rd rep and 2nd with Mirotime. My two main concerns are the rehault misalignment between 12 - 5 and [possible] SEL gap. I brought it to Leo's attention and he sent me a better picture that shows its slightly better aligned (image above) but made mention:

"At present the stock of this VSF Hulk is very tight so if we try another it might take 1-2 weeks for the next QC. Besides I am afraid for the next one, we might have bigger obvious issue like bad aligned cyclop and datewheel, faulty bezel etc. We wish you can reconsider regarding the situation of stock of VSF and the overall performance of this watch."

I appreciate his candidness. I'm still weighing back and forth about the Rehault and wanted the advice of the members
  1. Dealer name: Mirotime (great communication and has been great to deal with thus far)
  2. Factory name: VSF
  3. Model name (& version number): VSF 116610 LV Hulk Submariner VS3135
  4. Album Links:
QC pics: https://imgur.com/a/T8V0LIh
QC video: https://youtu.be/A_0WkRyqtww
  1. Index Alignment: rehualt from 12 - 5 looks completely off but I can't tell if it's just the first "R" or if it is all the way through until "5" I asked for a pic at a better angle and got the one from the main post.
  2. Dial Printing: seems good
  3. Date Wheel alignment/printing: seems good
  4. Hand Alignment: good
  5. Bezel: seems good
  6. Solid End Links (SELs): Angle may be deceiving me here but in some pics it looks like there may be a little SEL gap under the "7" SEL.
  7. Timegrapher numbers: https://youtu.be/QIlqgERPwq8 [+3s/d is good]
  8. Anything else you notice: the rest details of this watch are very nice such as the aligned cyclop and aligned datewheel.

You should follow the rules mate.

You're right. I posted this in Reddit and here not thinking. Jet lag has got the best of me. I'll remove these to not clog the post up. Thanks for not roasting me because of it man.

As long as he has a specific issue with QC he can actually post here.

Its a known issue. Either wait or accept as is.

And take your copy/pasted Reddit shite straight back there.

Brother it was an honest mistake, truly didn’t mean to get heat over it. Just came off a 15 hour flight and not thinking straight. I’ll work on getting it down.

They are not a TD here despite their constant attempts, and you asked specific question about this QC so in theory there's nothing really wrong with your post

Nothing to worry about for your post

ZF has bad printing on the dial, specially the crown logo, as well as much coarser hands finishing; judging it side by side with the VSF. ZZF’s hands, even though highly hyped, dont seem superior to VSF...at least to my eyes looking at the photos available.

In the video the girl basically says that there are pros and cons for all the watches however the ZF has more cons than the others in particular she says the clasp isn’t as good especially difficult to open and the date wheel also seems slightly small and she doesn’t know if it’s the printing of the wheel itself or the magnification. In terms of the bezel insert they are all pretty much similar and the noob one is actually imported from Japan and the others use clean factory. Dials she said aren’t too dissimilar from each other. Hope this helps.
